Abstract
This paper describes an empirical study of a developed persuasive software tool (PerSoDeMetrics) and its effects on the software engineering area. The duration of the study was ten months. The persuasive tool was introduced for a small development team in the real-world. The study tries to analyze the effect of this tool being applied by software developers. The major goal was to persuade software developers to focus on the improvement of their software components. Based on this challenge we developed a plug-in which includes persuasive technology mechanisms. The persuasive software tool is a plug-in/extension in the development environment for Visual Studio 2010. It calculates the software metrics and provides recommendations as how developers can improve the quality of their software components. © 2012 Springer-Verlag.
